Hundreds of boxes of food and basic necessities will be sent to the most affected areas, along with a message of hope and comfort for the families affected by the floods in Romania
The recent torrential rains in south-east Romania, caused by storm Boris, have left a tragic toll on the villages of Slobozia, Conachie and Pechea. The floods, described as “historic” by local authorities, have caused several deaths, missing people, thousands of evacuated, and hundreds of thousands without electricity. Streets and homes have suffered severe damage, leaving families in extremely vulnerable situations.
In response to this crisis, REMAR SOS, in collaboration with Messengers of Peace, has activated its emergency protocol to provide assistance to those affected in the most devastated areas.
REMAR SOS and Messengers of Peace Prepare Humanitarian Aid for Romania
In response to the devastating floods, REMAR SOS and Messengers of Peace are already working tirelessly to prepare hundreds of boxes with food and humanitarian aid. These boxes, which include essential items such as non-perishable food, drinking water, clothing and hygiene items, will be sent immediately to the towns most affected by the torrential rains, such as Slobozia Conachie and Pechea.
The sending of this aid not only seeks to meet the basic needs of families who have lost everything, but also carries a message of hope. The teams of volunteers from REMAR SOS and Messengers of Peace will go to the devastated areas to offer words of encouragement and comfort to those who face the anguish and pain of having seen their lives fall apart in a matter of days.
This solidarity effort is a reflection of the commitment of both organizations to be present in the most difficult crises, providing concrete help and, above all, hope to those who need it most.
